To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Francis Hutcheson had indulged in the pursuit, and his collection passed to Professor Alexander Dunlop, and then to the University, as appears in a Faculty Minute of nth January, 1754.
RECLAMATION OF PEAT MOSS The last effort of a bankrupt oftentimes is to plunge into some new business of which he is totally ignorant, in the vain hope of extricating himself from the difficulties which have overtaken him in the business which he knows. Such was the case of the Messrs. Foulis. As if bookselling, ...printing and publishing, and the manage- ment of the Academy were not sufficient to occupy their time and their energies, they betook themselves to land improvement. Their new project was that of converting peat moss into arable ground. For this purpose they purchased a hundred acres of Carnduff Moss in the parish of Avondale, and in 1772 more than forty acres of Flatt Moss in the parish of Glassford. For carrying their plan into execution they had a large sort of plough constructed, to be drawn by men, as the ground was too soft to bear the weight of horses, with which deep trenches were to be formed for draining and drying the moss.
